Hi All,

I am in the final stage of completing my order on the nengun website. But I am having trouble coming to the conclusion of which offset I need in order to fill the guards nicely on my 96' R33 GTR VSpec. I am purchasing the RAYS VOLK GT-C Face 2 19" x 10.5" x Offset ???. I need to know what offset would I need in order to achieve this look of the GTR in the pic below. The offset options I have in that size are; +12, +24, +37 and -8. Also I am going for a stretched tyre look, would you say a 245/30R19 would fit a 10.5 in rim safely? Reason I'd like a 245 is so I don't have to lip the guards, but at worst case I will lip guards and put a 285/30 tires on their instead.

I am also getting the TEIN-Type Flex fully adjustable suspension package for road use, not the track. Anybody had any experience with this suspension package on their GTR?

The rims pictured are the +12 offset, and have a 285 30-19 tyre...I too am looking into this exact wheel combo.

Sweet! Well I just went out and measured the standard 33 GTR rim which is a 17x9 +30 offset...So if I have my calculations right, a +12 offset in a 10.5 inch rim will will give 1mm less (inner to the strut) and 37mm extra (outer to the guard).

Does that sound right to you? I gotta be sure especially if I gonne be spending $4k on rims!

I'm really not sure to be honest dude, but I totally know where you're coming from. It's so hard when you can't see them on the car.

I was just quoting another guy on here who knows that car you've pictured. A7ERX is his username on GTR.co.uk forum I believe, might be worth a track down.

    • Thank you, 100% the intent. New coils were due and the 17" sixers look/feel loads better than the stock wheels. The aero options are so spot on.   Thanks for the warm welcome, all!
    • 98 r34 gtt Been rocking my latest setup and car running like never before. Have put a good 200 miles on it since all the latest changes and additions. everything is dialed in and have been driving it a bunch.   However, all a sudden last weekend as soon as I pushed throttle passed 4k and the engine stumbles, (slow or fast acceleration) hesitates and doesn’t go above 4100 or so, like a misfire. Everything else seems fine. I had a “good” set of coil packs that I removed from car when I first got it when I changed them over to new coils. I swapped out current ones for those, but no change. I also changed the plugs, no change. Seems to rev over 4 when out of gear with no load just fine no “misfire”, but as soon as its in gear with a load of any kind, it “misfires” as soon as rpm drop back below 4 k it runs perfectly, smooth, starts, restarts and drives fine as long as I keep it below 4 k while in gear. All readings look fine, no CEL   Any idea as to what could all a sudden cause an issue when pushing rpms passed 4 k?
    • When you say your cams are 272/262 is that 272in and 262ex?
    • We're arguing semantics. I am saying 45 accel and a 55 deccel ramp are "2 ways". Even a 45 degree ramp and an 89 degree ramp is "2 ways", because it is literally... two ways. The cusco 55/30 ramp is a 2 way. It's two ways. I get it though - in normal nomenclature a "2 way" would be 45/45 or 55/55 or 60/60 i.e the same locking in both directions. And something like 45/65 would be considered "1.5 way". I would then say if we're getting into the nitty gritty then every locking diff is a "2 way" diff and we should not speak in 1.5, or 2 ways but ramp angles instead. Which ofc if one of those ramp angles is 90deg, that side is not doing any locking. :p So Nismo don't obviously sell 3 things. The fact of the matter that they only sell two items really goes to show that there's a 2 way and a "1,5 way" which is really a 1 way. I believe the actual lockup for the 'adjustability' of the GT pro is really just setting preload for when the ramps actually start locking up. It's not changing how much 'wayness' there is. It is (somehow) horribly explained. People just buy whatever diff and go "locks up good bruh" and that's what ends up on socials forever.
